Hi,

I'm getting an error with the following configuration:

Horizontal Vessel
Elliptical head with nozzle
Material SA351 CF8M High Strength Metric

When I change the design temperature say from 100°C to 125°C
I get the following error "Temperature Violation"

Go to -> Nozzle Input/Analysis -> Quick Calculation Result

The program has set the nozzle stress at temperature, Sn = 0 N/mm²

The error disappears when I re-select the nozzle material

also the error only occurs with "Metric Material Database"

Thanks
Neil

Hi Neil,

We'll have a look at it. But you should really file a TR or issues like these. That is the official way.

Hi Neil,

This issue occurs when the metric material database is selected and the particular material has stress values that populate the entire temperature range, like SA-351 CF8M.

As a workaround, enter the temperatures first on the first element before you select your materials and start adding nozzles and other details.

This issue will be fixed in the first service pack.

Best regards,

Dear Scott,

I don't know what a TR is, can you explain.

Regards,
Neil
